Chapter 844: Stepping Stone

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Qiu Luocheng laughed sinisterly, “Brat, if you can’t hold on, don’t force yourself. You’ve already seen all those people who died earlier, so let that serve as a warning that death is all that awaits you.”

Ye Chen smiled coldly and ignored him. He summoned his life rune, and his body was covered in violent arcs of lightning.

The lightning instantly caused the pressure he was facing, and he took another few steps forward.

He had already reached the twentieth step!

At this moment, the crowd was silent. Even Qiu Luocheng, who was on the 28th step, had a strange expression on his face.

The gap between the two of them had actually shortened to eight steps!

Damn it!

How could this piece of trash with mortal roots get to this level?

At that moment, Ye Chen moved again.

This time, the Immortal Flames enveloped his entire body and blocked all of the pressure. He took one step after another.

Although he was not yet in a sorry state, Ye Chen could clearly feel the waves of pressure coming at him one after another.

His face was pale and his body was drenched in sweat. He even spit out a mouthful of blood!

Qiu Luocheng did not expect Ye Chen to be so capable. Although he felt uneasy, he still said, “Ye Chen, if you continue to persist, you might not even be able to stay alive. It’s already very good of you to be able to reach this step. Don’t ruin your future in vain.”

“Shut up!” Ye Chen’s veins bulged as he roared and took a few more steps forward.

Within seconds, Ye Chen had reached the twenty-eighth step, and was standing shoulder to shoulder with Qiu Luocheng!

“Impossible!” Qiu Luocheng exclaimed, his eyes filled with shock.

What qualifications did this b*stard have to be on equal footing with him?

Then, before he could react, Ye Chen took another two steps forward and reached the thirtieth step!

At this moment, not only was Ye Chen’s body covered with lightning and flames, but his entire body was also exuding killing intent.

This killing intent was so overwhelming that it made his surroundings colder.

Lunatic!

The crowd below erupted. Ye Chen’s performance had undoubtedly set off a storm!

A person with mortal roots had actually reached the 30th step!

Could it be that Ye Chen’s talent and strength had actually surpassed Qiu Luocheng’s?

How the f*ck was this possible?

Many people rubbed their eyes in disbelief, wondering if it was all an illusion.

Ji Siqing’s expression, who was standing in a circle of light in the distance, turned from worry to curiosity.

Today, Ye Chen had given her too many surprises.please visit ” sitestorys(.)c0m ” maybe y0u will enj0y the captivating sh0rt st0ries.

She was very curious about where he had obtained these opportunities and what level of strength he had achieved.

Although Ye Chen had spent five years in the Kunlun Mountains, his starting point was too late. Logically speaking, reaching the immortal ascension realm would have already considered heaven-defying for him.

However, ever since Ye Chen went to Huaxia, where the spiritual energy was thin, he had grown at a terrifying rate.

It was as if fate itself was guiding Ye Chen to step onto the path of true strength.

Duan Huai An probably did not have the ability to nurture Ye Chen to this level, so could it be that Ye Chen had been accepted as a disciple by some mighty expert?

At the same time, someone’s face darkened.

Mr. Jingshui stared at Ye Chen and clenched his fists!

He had not expected Qiu Luocheng to become Ye Chen’s stepping stone!

It was simply embarrassing!

A hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.

Although Ye Chen did not reach the top of the mountain, one thing was certain.

Ye Chen’s talent had already surpassed most young geniuses, so he could not let this kid continue to grow.

Otherwise, this brat would definitely be a threat to him.

At this moment, Ye Chen did not continue walking up the stairs. Instead, his cold gaze landed on Qiu Luocheng.

“Qiu Luocheng, do you admit defeat? Kneel down and destroy your own dan tian!”

Ye Chen would not hold back or sympathize with such a person.

Qiu Luocheng’s expression became a little fearful. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and take a step forward. He believed that he could take two more steps, which would at least make it a draw.

However, he did not expect that before he could take a single step, the force of the pressure crashed into him, and forced him back.

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Ye Chen, don’t go too far!”

Ye Chen smiled coldly and unsheathed his sword.

“A loss is a loss. There’s no need to try and delay the inevitable.”

Qiu Luocheng was heavily injured and knew that he could not continue forward.

His eyes darted around and he no longer hesitated as he descended the mountain. At this moment, he no longer cared about anything else.

If he knelt in front of this little b*stard, his reputation would be ruined!

Most importantly, he would have to destroy his own dantian!

Without his dantian, he would lose everything.

As long as he made it down the mountain and hid behind Mr. Jingshui, he would be safe!

Of course, reality was cruel.

Qiu Luocheng had not even gotten very far when a sword appeared in front of him. The violent force when he blocked the attack sent him flying back to his original spot.

Then, a black shadowy figure arrived…

It was Ye Chen!

At the same time, the sword rested on Qiu Luocheng’s shoulder.

“I’ll give you two choices. Fulfill your promise, or I’ll send you on your way.”

Qiu Luocheng’s entire body stiffened. He could feel traces of lightning entering his body.

“I’m Juewu sect’s…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Chen slammed the flat side of the sword against Qiu Luocheng’s cheek, leaving a clear mark.

“Kneel down!”

Qiu Luocheng’s body was riddled with injuries, and the surrounding pressure had already swept over him.

With a cry, he knelt on the ground.

At this moment, there was only fear in his heart.

He and Ye Chen were the only ones here. No one could help him!

“I don’t think I need to tell you what to do next.”

Ye Chen’s indifferent voice rang out.

“Ye Chen, there’s no blood feud between us, so there’s no need to go this far,” Qiu Luocheng said unwillingly.

“Would you pity me if I lost? You have three seconds left. Don’t waste my time.”

Qiu Luocheng was about to say something when Ye Chen moved.

He clenched his fist, and the violent power of the divine lightning overflowed.

The power of the divine lightning surrounded the sword, and it instantly shot out, aimed straight at Qiu Luocheng’s dantian.

Kacha!

When his dantian was shattered, Qiu Luocheng’s true qi overflowed and dissipated, and he spat out three mouthfuls of blood!

It was a shocking sight.

“You!”

Qiu Luocheng’s eyes widened.

Ye Chen had clearly given him three seconds. Why did he attack before even a second had passed?

This despicable person!

“I’m sorry, I changed my mind. I don’t even want to give you three seconds.”

After saying that, Ye Chen turned around and took a step forward.

Seeing this, Qiu Luocheng’s expression was horrified, and it looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He could not believe that the thirtieth step was not Ye Chen’s limit!
